Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented July 21, 1908.

Appiieauon fuea october 16, mios. serial No. 252,963.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HYMAN ELI GOLD- Banc, a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State.ofIlliiioisVhave invented a certain new and useful Improvement inCalculating-Ma-,

chines, of which the following is a specification. f

My invention relates to calculating machines, including calculatingattachments to ypcwriters, the latter being the form here illustrated;

In commercial bills of accounts, frequently there are columns of figuresof more than one denomination; thus there may be columns containingintegers and fractions, or feet and inches, or hours and minutes, ordollars and cents, oi' pounds, 'shillings and pence. An Englishwholesale cloth merchant inight have a. bill like the` following:

40k yds. serge 28g yds.'clieviot ii t( 5,15 yds. 25 15s. (5d.

53 5s. ou.

In this hill there are whole numbers where, in adding, the carryingr isto occur for every ten vulgar fractions where the carrying is to occurfor every eight; pence where the carry ing is to occur for every twelve;and shillings where lthe carrying is to 'occur for every twenty. Byvulgar fractions .l `mean those ex ressed hy two numbers, a numeratorand a. fliinoininator, the denominator beingIr either greater orlessthan 10.

The object of this invention is to provide mechanism adapted tocalculate accounts contaii'iing such columns of more than onedenomination, and in calculating to he oper. ated in the same way iisthough the columns were all of one denomination.

'l`he invention consists in improvements in totalizing inechanisnls theterme!" here shown being in many respects identical with the one forwhich Letters 'Patent of the United States were granted ine October 20,1903 No; 741,961. The invention also consists in certain iinproveinentsnkey actions c nd the relationship thereof to the totalizer.'

levery eighth unit and also, in

ism adapted to In many respects the key action here shown is identicalwith the one for which Letters Pat ent No. 782,554 were granted to' meFebruary 14,1905.- 'j

In carrying out my invention, I have constructed a totalizer havingl'more than one kind of carrying wheels therein, for exam le wheels thatproduce a carrying -eifect For the saine totalizer, wheels that producencarr ing'effect for every tenth unit, bothkinds o Wheels' being operatedfrom the saine vsetof ke}'1s '\'vithout requiring the assistance ormediation of any shift keys or4 siinilar devices. l reasons it isdesirable in a' totalizer that all of thereceiviiii,r wheels,' w,hichare those operated froiii t ie setting wheel, outside of the totalizer,sho uld be of the saine size and one of the ob'ects of this-inventionistorender this )ossi le. Itis desirable in a'calculating macine to employ as few ligure keys as ossible, and in a machine forcalculating lenglisli money where there are twenty shillings in a poundit would be undesirable to employ nineteen or twenty keys. I produce theproper action by means of only eleven keys includingr the 0 key whichlatter produces nogrotative effect upon the carryiiur wheels. 1n accomilishing thsI provide asinglc special key whici is so constructedandconnected that it will print a 1 but add ten; and the l will'appear on'the -printedl page'in the tens pence place, that is, at the left of thetwo i igits indicating the number of pence.

lt is also an object of this invention to prolvide means whereby-it ispossible not only te calculate fractions but also to print them frenithe saine set of keys which print the integers.

issued to me VOctober 7, 1902.

At different parts of the different total-v izers the carrying pointsare/different, for

'instance one carries' at every .two, another at 'every `eight, anotherAat every ten' and another at every twelve, but the theory iii-all isthesaine and for illustration the Wheels earr inv at ever ten will irst bedescribed .l s i reference being had especially to the left portion ofFig. l() and to Figs. l1 to 13 andalso l `igs. 1), 20, 21 and 24. Asbrought iio out in said patent No. 710,772, and-as shown for example inFigs. land 10 of the drawings of the present application, each carryinglwheel is conneetedto its neighbor onvthe right by "one carryinneighbor'on the left pinion. A Each carrying wheel. consists of pinionand to its threesections which are ).ireferablly integral- .with eachother. r

consists of a complete toothed gear wheel,

'lhe section ontlie right which in the present instance has twentyteeth. The sections on the .leftani'linidrlle are two disk sectorshaving an 'an iilai' extent exoeeding 180 by onetoot l spaceSaidseetoriiare ,onv diametricallv opposite U lby' another carrying-,the'j'iglit carrying wheel will cause 'the pinion to rotate one toothspace once during.

sides of the wheel axis and consequentlA 'there are formed twooverlappings` whic constitute carrying-teeth. There are thus twocarryingteeth n a carrying wheel having twenty teeth and hence the wheelwill carryfor every ten. By analogy it is obvious that if there were tenevenly distributed carrying teeth the wheel would carry at ever, two andthis'is actually the case with .wheel and preferably haseight teeth. T-ey 'are adapted to mesh with the completely4 toothed right section ofthe vcarrying wheel located next to the left as best shown in` Fig. 10.l, The middle and right sections'of a carrying Ainionnareeight'toothedgearfwheels removed. The teeth of the mutilated sections'. alternatewith each other, andthe ment the-middle section of a ladjacent to theleft section of t e next carrymutllate by having "each alternate toothparts are`so" arranged that when in enga einion will. e

-g wheel to the ri ht while the right section of the pinion will eadjacent toA the middle section thereof. As a result, the rotation ofevery half rotation of said wheel 'and will in the' meantime hold thepinion locked, and

the step by step rotation of the pinion will be transmitted to the leftcarryin r wheel one tooth space at a time. '.It wil be noted therotation maybe in either direction, and

that this mechanism is reversible, thatis,

consequently the totalizer is capable of performing both addition andsubtraction. .It

will also beV noted that the carrying pinions perform two functions, towit, to carry and meantime to lock the carryin 7 wheels located at theirleft. 'They may -tzhereforebc regarded as locking devices as well asdevices for carrying.

It is clear that when the carrying pinions are in engagement with theircarrying wheels each carrying wheel is prevented from rotating becausethe pinion connecting it tothe carrying wheel to the right is itselflocked upon said right carrying wheel, which is a great advantage in atotalizer or counting ing wheel must be free to rotate during the timeit is in -gearwith the setting wheel 1() and conse uently the carryingpinions are 'made mova: le so that they may be automatically thrown intoand out of o erativeconnectlon with the carrying w ieels `at the propertime.' In the present design this is accomplished by mounting saidcarrying pinio'ns each in an independent holder or rocking f rame'30,best shown in Figs. 5to 84 4and in size or practically so,

- engagement wit But it is evident that a carry- Figs. 20 and 21. Forconvenience in construction these holders are alternately arranged intwo arou s on 'opposite sides of the carrying whee 'These holders arepivoted upon rods 31 fastened in the side walls which constitute part ofthe framework 22 of the totalizers. or swung about t eir pivotsV bymeans .of the stationary controllingbar 32 which is fastened to thetypewriter framework 1, as shown in Figs. l'and 2. The position of apinion holder depends upon the cross section of the bar Iat theparticular point where the.

holder is momentarily located as it travels lengthwise of said bar. Theswinging movement of aholder brings it'spinion into and outof.engagement withthe carrying'wheels, and the parts'are so .constructedthat a carrying pinion will always .engage its carrying wheels exceptwhen the corresponding re- .,ceivingwheel'lS is'in engagement with thesetting wheel. Thus when. the settin wheel is* rotated, the engagedreceiving W eel is rotated, and, so also l" are" the `'engged figurewheel andicarrying wheel, and eicarrymg The pinion holders are rockedYpinion'which connects said' settingwheel to the higher carrying wheelis inoperative allows such rotation to take place. Said "position butthe next pinion to the right is ack out'of operative position and thusfirst pinion to theright howeveris the only one in retractedpositionfthe others being in .their .carrying wheels tohold the samelocked.I The particular strnc- I ture wherebythis effect is produced isbest shown in Figs. 2, 5, 6, 7,8, 20 and 30. TheV pinion holders 30 areeach provided with two projections or toes 30* and 30P Which'makecontact with opposite sides of'the'controllng bar- 32 above mentioned.At the point opposite to the setting wheel said bar has a cam' 32* onone side and a notch"32b on the opposite side. the'toe 30, while thenotch receivesthe toe 30b and thereb permits the cam action to take4place. T e result of the cam action is to move the carrying pinion awayfrom its carrying wheels. The ends of the notches are properlybev'eledso as to produce a smooth action as the holders slide along the bar. Atall other points along the controlling bar, the cross section is such asto contact the toes 3Qb and thereby hold the carrying 'pinions inengagement'with their carrying wheels.

The general princi le of the. above described carrying mec ianism iscommon to the entire totalizer but special provisions are re uired forthe noduction of a practical an complete totallzer for calculatingounds, shillings', and pence and these specia provisions will now bedescribed.

Pounds, shillings, and pence-It is, of course, desirable and in acertain sense necessary that the receiving wheels 'lic a4 of a Said cam'is adapted to projectthe same is true'of 13o the figure wheels. Butwhile.` ounds are counted upon 'a decimal system", s 'illings and penceare not, there being twelve pence in a shilling and twenty shillings ina pound; and moreover while sin fle figures are sufficient to expressthe poun( s on the pounds ligure wheels, it requires two figures toexpress the higher numbers of thel ence and shillings series. Iovercomethis t ilhculty by making the .ence figure wheel 27, shown separately inigs. and 26, double, although it constitntes a single piecc,' anddividing the )cripheral surface into twelve spaces and asltening a. gear28 on the side, said gear having twelve teeth instead often as in thecase with the pounds fivure wheels which carl' at every ten. Theshillings I arrange to s ow on two figure wheels, which areindependently rotatable and so constructed that the lower carries to thehigher at every ten and the higher carries to the lowest pounds wheel atevery two, in the manner hereinafter more fully described'. l

Revertmg again to the pencewheels and carrying mechanism, the specialreceiving wheel 18l which in its preferred form is shown separately inFig. 9, is loose upon shaft 23 and consists of three toothed gearsadapted to rotate as a single piece. The middle and Aright ear areadapted to mesh with setting wheelt 10 as they pass'over it, but thegear to the left is slightly smaller. It never meshes'with said'settingwheel but remains in mesh with the twelve toothed ear 28* on the penceligure wheel 27 as est shown in Fig. 27. Foi-convenience in construction'and symmetry of design the pence taken in connection with a-iguregwhecl is bilnrcated or recessed in the middle so as to allordaspace for the middle one-of the three gears of the pence receivingwheel, thereby enabling the parts to be arranged compactly. (')n theright portion of the pence wheel there is a series of figures runningfrom 0 to .1 and then a "(1. to he 1 on the left portion, to read 10,and then a 1 to be taken in connection with a 1 on the left portion toread .11` This completes the series, the next ligure being the ftl atthe commencement thereof.

The carrying wheel 2G shown separately in Figs. 17 and 1S is similar tocarrying wheel 26 shown in Figs. 11, 12 and 13 but has twenty four teethin its complete gear portion andv two carrying tcelh, thus causing it tocarry atevery twclvc as before mentioned. The carrying 'pinion '29 whichengages the left portion of said pence carrying wheel 26 is the saine asall the other carrying pinions, but that particular piece which wouldcorrespond toa. carrying pinion to the right of the pence carrying wheelis not a pinion, in the present machine atleast, but is 'a locking pieceor dog which is fixed on a speciatholder ist!" (see 22 and. 2.3) and tohold said pence carrying wheel locked at all times except when in directgear connection with the setting wheel 10. vlt has been pointed outhereinabove and also in in said Patent No. 782,554,' that the locking oanyone carr ing wheel locks all the higher ones-,and by t ius keeping'the pence carrying wheel, which is the lowest one in the lnachine hereillustrated, locked, the whole totalizer becomes locked. 1

The reason why a special Form of holder is required for the pence.carrying wheelis that the locking oint 30d on said holder must bedisengaged rom said pence carrying wheel at two printing points, for itmust be borne in mind that it'takes two figures to represent 1(1 penceor vll pence and in my ma chine which docs away with special typefforl() and 11, two keys mustbe struck. After the first key has been struck,the carriage and space to the left for printing the second iigure, andit is obvious that the pence figure wheel and its driving receivingwheel must he free to rotate at this time. Consequently the specialholder'fi()c and locking bar 32 are so constructed as to ,withhold thelocking point 3()d durin 'the time of engagement of the setting whee 1()with bot-hithe middle and right gears'of the pence receivingvwhe'el 18,-In the present design this action is produced by making the toe/3()c ofthe holder 30broad enough to remain in engagemcnt 'with the cam 32'* ofbar 32 during two positions of the totalizer and carriage, that is,durinr the printing of the two digits. Bar 32 las a 'notch 32" forreceiving said s ecial holder while said` cam is acting on sait holder,and

of engagement during thc action ol' both of the receiving wheels 18 tlienotch 32" is extended as best shown in Fig. 3U. As is the case. with thenotch 32" above. mentioned the produce asmooth action of the specialholder 30 and in fact constitute cams for cooperating with cam 32".'Thuscams 32 and 32 constitute a pairfor acting Aupon the specialholdcr30' and the cams 32* and 32" constitute another pair for operating uponnotch 32" only on the far portion of saiibar, The toes 30" thus bridgeover the narrow .notch 32'and are unaffected thereby while th short toe30e does not extend as far as notch 32 and is consecpxently xlnalqctcd lthereby. These relations lips are '4best illuson the regular holderslong, and plac-nc the totalizer of course travel one step or type inorder that said locking point may bc'out endsoic the notch 32" arehevelcd so as to y leo i trated in Figs. 20 and 22 taken in connectionwith Fig. 30. Having thus described the construction of the pence ligurewheels and actuating mechanism thereof I will next describe trheshillingsfigure wheels and their actuatimlr devices. The shillings areshown on two igurc wheels 27b and 27 best shown in Fig. 4, the wheel 27"being shown separately in Figs. 28 and 29. The lower shillings wheel 27b which occupies a position to the right-has a single series of figuresto E) inclusive and 'has a ten' toothed gear wheel 28V on the sidethereof which in all respects like the pounds figure wheel-above`^described- It is operated dir rectly from thesetti'ng wheel 10through' the agency'V of its respective receiving wheel.1 8

und also in. carrying, by thepartieulararrying pinion operated by thepencecarrying wheel 26, the parts being 4so arran ed that said lowershillings figure wheel wil berotated one figure for cach'cornpleterevolution of the pence wheel 27". T he higher shillings figure wheel.27c which is located next to the lc t of wheel 27b is'of a specialtype,having marked thereon a set'of 1 "s which are notlocated close togetherbut are separated peripherally by a sin fle figure space as shown' inFigs. Land 28. f desir-cda 0 might be marked between-each alternate 1but this is unnecessary and merely a matter of a. whole -series ofshillings from 0 to nine this .higher shillings wheel ()n its leftchoice.l The purpose ofthis higher shillings figure wheel is' to exhibitthe higher digit of any number of Vshillings from'ten to nineteen.

It would be theoretically possible of course to make amachine in which asingle shillings wheel 'were employed on which were marked teen; butthis` would 'necessitate the use either of a wheel twice the size of thepounds wheels or one in which the'fi ure spaceswere reduced by o ne half3 and t iis construction by whichtwo` figureA wheels of the regular sizeare caused to perform the function cfa I single shillings wheel is oneof the features of my invention. Again referring to the actualconstruction of the higher shillings wheel 27, carries on the side a tentoothed gear 28 in the same manner as the regular figure wheel, earbeing adapted to remain' in mesh with its respective receiving wheel 18.The recexvm operate by a carrying wheel 26 of the regular type. adaptedto carry at every ten,.but the receiving wheel which operates the lowestpounds figure wheel is operated by a special carrying v vheel-2b shownseparatel in Figs.

14 to 16. Looking at the face of t e wheel, Fig. 14,.,fsaid carryingWheel. .26h has on the rigrht a twenty toothed gear adapted to mesh withthe carryingpinion connected to thc )oi-tion however v'instead of havingtwo overlapping carrying teeth, as is the'case with the regular wheelwhich -operates it, is also every two or in other Words every time oneof the ls on the figure wheel 27 is passed. Thus the lowest poundsfigure wheel 1s moved onefigure space by its carrying pinion` (operatedby wheel 26") once-for every second single movement of the highershillings figure wheel; obviously therefore space forl everysecondcomplete rotation of carrying a't every complete rotation" whilesecond figure space.

Integers (md vulgarfmctions.-l lavi n g now described totalizcr No. 2which is adapted to compute pounds, shillings, and )ern-,0., l will nowrefer to totalizer No. 1 whicli is adapted to compute inte ers andfractions. As here constructed tota izer No. 1 is adapted to comd puteintegers and eighths, although it will be obvious that the machine couldbe designed to compute other fractions without departing fromthespiritof the invention. Figs. 3l to 34 both inclusive especiallyillustrate totalizer No.v 1, and, the only difference between it andthccortstruction of f igure wheel 27 .and the carrying wheel 26'. Figurewheel 27 has eight igurel spaces thereon progressing by eighths and atthe side of this wheel is fastened tlie gear 28b which has eight teethin-A stead of tenus in the integer portion of the mechanism; with itsrespective receiving wheel, the number of teeth on the figure wheel gearcorrewheei wilt fond-e three saai spending to thenumher of figure spaceson its figure wheel. .j The receiving wheel which operates the eighthsfigure wheel meshes with a special carrying w reel 26 shown searately-in Fig. 34. '.llhis carrying whee is similar totheonespreviously described ex- 'cept that has in its complete gear portionsixteen teeth. l It has, in common w1th A the others, two carrying teethlocated on diametrieall -opposite sides and consequently said wheecarries twice for every com plete revohition or once for every eightfigure spaces. Therefore a complete revolution of the frac- `tion lwheel causes the lowest integer wheel to rotate-one tooth s paee. Thereceiving wheels of totalizer No. 2 are operated from' Settimr wheel 10and consequently no special iignrerkcys are required to impart theproper amount ofrotation to the fractional. wheel 27, hut to print afraction on the aper obviouslyrequires a different ty e fil-)om thatrequirml to print an integer, an in order that the figure keys may rintfractions when acting on the' fraction igure wheel and-integers whenacting on the integertigure wheels, I have .provided -eaeh of the firstseven figure keys with two kinds of type as shown separately iii Fig.35. Asthere shown, a type piece 4 which is connected to and operated iythe S ignrekey bears both a Bfand a 2 when' this key is struck the.setting rf the lss* Said gear 28" remains in mesh ,tion of a t-otalizerteger is to be printed the typewriter carriage 2 will he left in normalposition as illustrated in full lines Fig. 2, but if a fraction is to-boprinted the carriage will he shifted by means of one of the shift keys 3so as to bring the platen (i, opposite to the fractional type i. lhiislthis` machine is capable of calculating different denominations by thcuse of the saine figure keys and is capable of simultaneously printingthel proper character, the

. change from printing an integer to a fraction being m-.eoniplislnidshift key.

ln the form of typcwriterhere show n, the keys remain stationary and theplaten or paper carriage shifts, which produces the lateral movement ofthe totalizer past the settinr wheel. But there are standard and weflknown typewriters in which the figure keys shift while the paper remainsstationary and in fact this would he the ease if the machine here shown'were turned bodily upside down and caused to rest upon the carriage.spirit of my invention therefore is present in any machine in whichthere' is a relative shifting of the totalizer and setting wheel if bymerely 'depressing a The' such machine otherwise 'respondsi to any ofthe followingr claims.
